NN needs Ricky Craven or JB to be there and not Boris he just doesn't know what going on anymore. I though TWIN was great, I was surprised since Mikey's day ended badly and Reut's wasn't much better. Did enjoyed the car chief piece(I always wondered what they actually did) but it didn't belong on TWIN and shortened the NW and Truck coverage. I would be thrilled to see JJ as the special guest but some how I doubt it, but maybe Jim from the Truck race can make it.Newracefanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16324764517098771035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-22755953426050889002008-10-28T19:48:00.000-04:002008-10-28T19:48:00.000-04:00Anon 5:52PM,Waltrip reminds you of Mr. Drysdale?

And just how many fans actually even care about personnel moves that don't involve drivers, crew chiefs or owners? As a fan of Michael and MWR I'd love it if TWiN had an entire segment or more every single week devoted to nothing but discussion about Michael and MWR - after all, they're involved in every Nationwide and Cup race so technically they make news every single week, and Michael certainly has plenty to say on his XM show about what's happening for himself and his teams so he seems more than willing to talk at length about everything. But I'm just guessing there would be quite a few complaints from those who already think Michael talks too much about his own interests from his teams to Toyota to his sponsors. Seems to me this is one of those things that no matter it's handled, whether the questions are asked or not, and no matter how forthcoming the answers are, someone will say they're still handling it wrong.Deborahhttp://www.aplaceformyphotos.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-72231595367355421482008-10-28T14:29:00.000-04:002008-10-28T14:29:00.000-04:00It is my humble opinion that listening to Ricky Cr...It is my humble opinion that listening to Ricky Craven or Boris Said is the equivalent of watching paint dry....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-52629961876389570132008-10-28T13:42:00.000-04:002008-10-28T13:42:00.000-04:00cvt,I can refer you to several TDP columns talking...cvt,<BR/><BR/>I can refer you to several TDP columns talking about this "wall of silence" for guys like Waltrip, Ray Evernham and Brad Daugherty.<BR/><BR/>As one earlier poster said, how can you have Ray on NASCAR Now on Monday and not talk about GEM? The whole thing is crumbling, rumors are everywhere and yet he is talking about other drivers as if he is not connected with the sport. It is just flat-out unfair to the viewers.<BR/><BR/>Same goes for MW. He gets a free pass this season on the new TWIN unless there is something he wants to promote and I just think that is also not right. <BR/><BR/>The final example is Kyle Petty. The reason I wrote the article about his hat is because no one asked him about it. <BR/><BR/>If ESPN hires Ray next season again, the network will have three fulltime owners in the Infield Studio.

When Michael made the comment about the #20 and Spencer, I wondered if there was some sort of inside joke or reference to something the others on the panel understood even if we didn't, but not necessarily that he was literally saying that according to Spencer Logano wouldn't be in the #20 next season. <BR/><BR/>Sure will miss Michael when he's not on next week! Jimmie Johnson was very loose and relaxed on the XM show he had last season - he showed not only a lot more personality than he usually does at the track but a great sense of humor as well. So I think he'd be great as a guest panelist on TWiN... but only if he was as willing to show that much personality.Deborahhttp://www.aplaceformyphotos.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-5669788142243161622008-10-28T11:27:00.000-04:002008-10-28T11:27:00.000-04:00If the source is Jimmy Spencer, I would suspect it...<B>If the source is Jimmy Spencer, I would suspect its validity.</B><BR/><BR/>Agreed.

Don't get me wrong, I like Ray but how can a man with the knowledge he has sit back and watch the 2 drivers he recruited, that showed loyalty to him through the most difficult year of his life, drop like rocks and not do anything to help these guys with their race teams? If he is still part of GEM, and he says he is, he needs to get over the "Jeff Gordon" loss he seems to be reverting back to and fix the problems happening to #9 and #19. These guys handed their future to him and he has dumped them in the trash and as a fan of the teams I am sickened by his praises of the other drivers while these drivers fight ill-handling cars and spin-out across the track. Thanks for the returned loyalty Ray! The fans appreciate it.Jacksonnoreply@blogger.com
